Abstract

Land use often causes environmental degradation to decrease. The land conversion carried out is thought to have an impact on the diversity of vegetation in the riparian zone. Thus, this study was conducted to determine the impact of land use on vegetation diversity and the natural level of the riparian zone. The sampling location was determined by purposive sampling based on the land use along the Amprong river, Tumpang sub-district. Furthermore, human activities are determined in the riparian zone of the Amprong river according to land use at five observation points. Vegetation diversity is determined by measuring relative density, relative frequency, and relative dominance. In addition, the Naturalness level is measured from the level of land use based on the three-level classification system of the Corine Land Cover (CLC) Nomenclature. The value of the hemeroby index is determined based on the results of the classification based on the nomenclature. The results show that the majority of agricultural community activities occur along the riparian zone of the Amprong river. The use of the riparian zone as a settlement is of rare intensity. In the riparian zone, there are anthropogenic activities that occur which have an impact on plant diversity. Plant diversity in the riparian zone is dominated by O. hirtelus, G. quadriradiata and Syngonium sp. at each station. The most common agricultural areas are rice fields, and agriculture with annual crops and natural vegetation. Both are included in the category of arable land and heterogeneous agricultural area. The hemeroby level of all stations is at the Euhemerobic level with moderate human impact, and -Euhemerobic with strong human impact.
